How to complete your profile

It is important that you complete your profile so you can present yourself in the best way possible. This will increase the chances of both brands and also other bloggers interacting with you.

A completed profile should consist of:
- Profile picture
- Social platforms you use added with stats
(It's good to update these often to correctly represent your following, see how here)
- Imagery added to show a range of what you are about.
- Content added with links to posts on other social platforms and also videos if you do those too.

Your profile picture is what brands and bloggers will first see, so choose something which best represents you and your style. Also your bio shows up so it's important to make it relevant and to the point.

An example below of how the search page looks. The bottom right thumbnail in the search results shows a feature visible to brands, where they can hover over your thumbnail to view your stats.



An example of a completed profile:
Here Leanne has showcased lots of imagery representing what she posts on her different platforms like Instagram, Facebook, Lookbook and in blog posts. A useful feature is the ability to order your images and so choose the first three which show up on your profile.

In content there are her recent blog posts, with the ability to view all to see older posts. Also there are lot videos from her youtube, and the ability to view all and decide which is shown as the default video.

A useful feature, to gather all your favourite brands and bloggers, appears at the bottom of the profile. Here they can easily be managed and even ordered to have your most favourites showing first!

Adding images and content has been updated so now it is possible straight from your profile page using the "Edit/Add" buttons for each section.
